Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology Entrance Examination • Conducted by KIIT Deemed to be University, Bhubaneswar
Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics Topics Drawn from Class 11 & 12 Curriculum
The KIITEE syllabus closely mirrors the standard CBSE Class 11 and Class 12 curriculum, keeping it aligned with JEE Main preparation material and accessible for students who have not pursued JEE Advanced-level depth.

Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry; Structure of Atom; Classification of Elements and Periodicity; Chemical Bonding; States of Matter; Thermodynamics; Equilibrium; Redox Reactions; Hydrogen; s-Block and p-Block Elements; Organic Chemistry Basic Principles; Hydrocarbons; Environmental Chemistry; Solid State; Solutions; Electrochemistry; Chemical Kinetics; Surface Chemistry; d and f Block Elements; Coordination Compounds; Haloalkanes and Haloarenes; Alcohols, Phenols and Ethers; Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic Acids; Organic Compounds Containing Nitrogen; Biomolecules; and Polymers.
Complex Numbers and Quadratic Equations; Matrices and Determinants; Permutations and Combinations; Binomial Theorem; Sequences and Series; Limits, Continuity and Differentiability; Integral Calculus and Differential Equations; Coordinate Geometry; Three-Dimensional Geometry; Vector Algebra; Statistics and Probability; Trigonometry; and Mathematical Reasoning.
Candidates applying specifically for KIIT's Biotechnology-related B.Tech programs may have an alternative paper structure incorporating Biology in place of or alongside Mathematics, depending on the specific program's eligibility requirements published in that year's brochure.
| Subject | High-Weightage Chapters |
|---|---|
| Physics | Mechanics, Electricity & Magnetism, Modern Physics |
| Chemistry | Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry Numericals |
| Mathematics | Calculus, Coordinate Geometry, Algebra |
Before attempting KIITEE, candidates should be comfortable solving NCERT-level problems across all listed chapters and have completed several full-length mock tests to build familiarity with the 120-question, 180-minute format and the +4/-1 marking scheme.
Given the equal-thirds weightage across Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, balanced preparation across all three subjects matters more in KIITEE than in exams that disproportionately weight one subject.
Roughly half of each subject's syllabus draws from Class 11 foundational topics, with the remainder from Class 12's more advanced content — Calculus and Electrostatics in particular carry significant weight from the Class 12 portion of the curriculum.
Covering the full breadth of the syllabus, rather than selectively skipping chapters, remains the most reliable path to a strong KIITEE score given the equal-thirds weightage.
A thorough, methodical pass through every chapter listed above, verified through regular mock-test practice, remains the most reliable preparation path.
The core syllabus and equal-thirds subject weightage closely mirror JEE Main, making KIITEE preparation largely interchangeable with standard JEE Main preparation.
Candidates applying for Biotechnology-related programs may have an alternative paper structure incorporating Biology; check the current year's brochure for specifics.
Minimal additional preparation is needed beyond practicing KIITEE's specific format and timing.
